BALTIMORE — The Baltimore County police on Friday released a video that shows a man suspected of using a forged drug prescription aggressively moving toward an officer before the officer shot and killed him.

Jim Johnson, the Baltimore County police chief, showed the video to reporters. It shows part of Wednesday’s shooting in Reisterstown, northwest of Baltimore.

The officer, identified as Officer Earomirski, is seen pointing a gun at Keith H. McLeod, 19. Mr. McLeod moves quickly toward him, then reaches behind his back before swinging his arm toward the officer, who fires three times. No weapon was recovered at the scene, the police said.
